Eighth: Explaining that the consequence of injustice is severe and that the wrongdoer will not succeed.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : This is also a great wisdom, so that it becomes clear that the end of injustice is bad and that the wrongdoer will not succeed. And this, by Allah, is something we are completely certain of, because Allah the Exalted said in the Qur'an: [Al-An'am 6:21] This is a report from whom? From Allah, whose reporter is truthful, and it is also a report from One who is able to carry out what He has promised: that the wrongdoers will not succeed. And He the Exalted said: [Yunus 10:81] So the corrupter will not have his work made right, and the wrongdoer will never succeed. If that is the case, then we trust that the wrongdoer will not succeed, whoever he is and whatever his kind among humans, he will not succeed. But it must not be forgotten in our minds an important issue, which is that Allah may allow the wrongdoer to continue and delay him, not taking him quickly, until the oppressed truly turns to Allah, and until the wrongdoer becomes arrogant and thinks that no one can bring him down. Sahih al-Bukhari 4686 As came in the hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: Sahih al-Bukhari 4686 And he recited His saying, the Exalted: [Hud 11:102] If we know that, then we await relief from Allah (Mighty and Majestic) by removing injustice from every oppressed person, whether in Palestine or in Afghanistan or in any of the lands of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), because we know that the matter is as Allah reported: that the wrongdoers will not succeed. Is there anything else?
The student: That this means is in itself good for Islam and the Muslims, not evil as some people think.
The Shaykh : How is that?
The student: Because it brought many benefits, and they benefited from it with many things that are useful for their interests.
The Shaykh : Very well.
Indeed, the wrongdoers will not succeed.
إنه لا يفلح الظالمونIndeed, Allah does not amend the work of corrupters.
إن الله لا يصلح عمل المفسدينAllah gives respite to the oppressor, but when He takes him over, He never releases him.
إن الله ليملي للظالم حتى إذا أخذه لم يفلتهAllah gives respite to the oppressor, but when He takes him over, He never releases him.
إن الله ليملي للظالم حتى إذا أخذه لم يفلتهAnd thus is the seizure of your Lord when He seizes the cities while they are committing wrong. Indeed, His seizure is painful and severe.
وكذلك أخذ ربك إذا أخذ القرى وهي ظالمة إن أخذه أليم شديدThe student: That this means is in itself good for Islam and the Muslims, not evil as some people think.
The Shaykh : How is that?
The student: Because it brought many benefits, and they benefited from it with many things that are useful for their interests.
